Earlier
this week, I started to read “Primal Fire” by Neil Cole, and at the start of
Chapter 2, The Eternal Pilot Light, there is this quote :-
“It is Jesus that you
seek when you dream of happiness; He is waiting for you when nothing else you
find satisfies you; He is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is He
who provoked you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for
compromise; it is He who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is He
who reads in your heart your most genuine choices, the choices that others try
to stifle. It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with
your lives, the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be
ground down by mediocrity, the courage to commit yourselves humbly and
patiently to improving yourselves and society, making the world more human and
more fraternal.”
Pope
John Paul II
